Has anyone had issues with dizziness during the early part of the diet. I have had issues today. Feeling like crud, dizzy and such. I'm feeling better tonight but ugg.

It does finally get there. My surgery is tomorrow. Three weeks of liquid diet sucked. But I did it. Crazy

I started my journey in June 2014. 90 days of medically supervised weight loss. about a month of waiting for approval. 3.5 weeks of liquid diet. and one surgery date FINALLY scheduled. I had a super hard afternoon on Tuesday. I'm so worried that I am some how going to mess this up that I was teary all afternoon. Being heavy most of my teen and adult life...I feel like I am really good at failing at diets and plans and systems for weight loss. I know in my head that Lap Band can help me...I just need to do the work. I have a very supportive husband and family. But I am the hardest on myself (for most things). I figured I would start here with you guys for some support from those who know. :-) So day one of the liquid diet almost done. Off to the store for some pudding and yogurt reinforcements. Tracey

My surgery date is November 11th. I started my pre-op diet last Thursday. I felt I was doing great for the first few days. By Monday I managed to catch a stomach bug. So two days of little food and lots of throwing up. Now I feel like I'm making a mistake even having the surgery. I'm worried this whole journey is going to be a mess. Help.

Well doubts aside, I caught the stomach bug that my students and coworkers have been getting. So bad timing for sure. I've been babying my tummy and I think I'm on the mend. Cream of chicken soup is in as is low cal Gatorade. Hoping for a much better Thursday. ????

Thanks all.

It's been a varying group I tell. My work BFF has been super as well as many other coworkers. My hubby has been with me all the way as has my family. I've had a couple people react weird. But mostly everyone has been awesome.

Cindy I was in the diet coke lover world too. I stopped 2 months ago and I've been doing pretty well. Each day gets easier. I'm at the end of my 5 month wait. It goes by some days slower some faster. Promise it does go by. T

Thanks Sandy. I'm going to keep checking in
